Winner of Aus open has the following market :

Nadal : 2.66
Djokvic : 2.06
Murry - 7

You could bet Nadal and Murry with $86 to return $100. Roughly odds of $1.16

You could lay Murray at to return the same amount for a liability of $84. So roughly odds of $1.19

This can make the diff in a long term profit or loss. Same bet. Siilar liability, better odds.

These are before commission.

I was gonna ask you to explain a little further because there appeared to be an error , but last time I tried to assist someone , I got my head kicked in :(

your good :)

but I know it free money , but the worry is the race could be over by time you have worked out one method is 3 cents better.
Or by the time you went back to get the 3 cents , someone beat you to it and its gone.
I dont know when the tennis match starts , but I figure in this case my worries aren't an issue.
And I'm a $5 punter so maybe thats why also the 3 cents means little
